Facebook testing new Timeline design

Facebook is testing a series of cosmetic changes to the top of users’ Timelines, the company has confirmed, Mashable reports.

Screenshots of the new design were posted on Talking Points Memo Tuesday, May 22 morning. The images show a condensed version of Timeline, in which a user’s details (name, occupation, education, location) appear in reverse type on top of - rather than below - the cover photo.

The carousel of thumbnail images highlighting friends, photos, places, likes, etc. has also been compressed. Images are now replaced by thumbnails. Next to these, a new “Summary” section appears, presumably to highlight key events on a user’s Timeline.
